#like I've opened up a book from my childhood that ive forgotten

9 favourite movies

Thanks for the tag, @banirareiko! I'm a little late in doing this for various reasons, not least of which being that I'm not a huge movie-watcher and I also don't have a lot of favourites, so the thought of coming up with NINE of them was incredibly intimidating. In the end, I cheated, but not as much as I thought I would.

There are some movies I've really enjoyed but have only seen them once, so I didn't want to put them in a favourites list even if I might actually like them better than some of these. *shrugs* I don't watch a lot of movies, let alone re-watch them. I've probably forgotten a bunch as well.

In no particular order:

The Italian Job - a fun movie that I've seen many times and could definitely watch many times again

Pride and Prejudice - it's a miniseries rather than a movie, but I've watched the whole 5 hours of it in a single sitting on multiple occasions, so I think it counts (also I would've included Emma and Sense and Sensibility on this list as well but didn't want to push it with all the miniseries)

The Abduction Club - absolute cheesefest. it's hilarious and makes for a good comfort movie

The Man From U.N.C.L.E. - this one got done so dirty at the box office, we were robbed of a sequel. it had me hooked from the trailer alone. if you like spy movies that don't take themselves seriously, give this one a shot

Little Women - a classic from my childhood, this is one of my favourite versions. I wasn't a fan of the new version at all; this one meets the mark on pretty much every level

Star Wars Episode IV - this is where I'm cheating again; I like the whole original trilogy and don't have a favourite of the three, but of course I'll never watch the latter two without watching this one first

The Three Musketeers - I'm not sure I'd really classify this as a favourite nowadays, but I loved it growing up and it's definitely one that I'd be willing to watch again

Ocean's Eleven - it's just another one of those movies that doesn't really get old no matter how many times you watch it

The Outsiders - I'm including this more for the book than the movie itself, but I'm still counting it. Also I kinda copied the opening lines of the book for one of my fics, so I think I have to include it

I'll tag @effortandmore, @eskiix, and @itsashleighh, if you want!
